Milwaukee Mechanics Tools — Ratchets, Wrenches, Sockets, and Breaker Bars

A few years back, Milwaukee launched a line of sockets and ratchets covering 1/4″ and 3/8″ drives. Then, Milwaukee expanded the lineup to include 1/2″ drives, including a couple of breaker bars. Now, the Milwaukee mechanics tools lineup has been fleshed out even further with Extended Handle Ratchets and Stubby Ratchet models.


Milwaukee Extended Handle Ratchets and Stubby Ratchets

The Milwaukee line of mechanics tools now offers even better accessibility into tighter spaces with two new handle designs for the ratchet collection. You can now pick up Milwaukee ratchets with extended and/or stubby handles.

Milwaukee Mechanics Tools stubby and extended handle ratchets

Like the existing line of Milwaukee ratchets, the Stubby and Extended Handle Ratchets feature a 90-tooth design that works with a 4º arc swing. The reduced arc swing, along with the slim profile head and flush directional lever help with getting into tighter spots.

All of the new ratchet models feature all-chrome finishes for better corrosion resistance and easier cleaning. Milwaukee backs each of these hand tools with a Lifetime Guarantee.

You can expect these new ratchets to hit stores beginning in March.

Milwaukee Wrench Sets

The Milwaukee mechanics tools lineup also includes a variety of wrench sets that come in both your combination and ratcheting varieties.

All of the Milwaukee Wrench Sets in the mechanics tools lineup feature the Max Bite open-end grip. This design improves your grip on nuts and bolts while reducing rounding and stripping. The Max Bite design also provides 25% more torque than your standard wrench. The I-Beam handle design really lets you crank down comfortably.

Milwaukee has included ink-filled size labels for easy identification, and each set comes in a tray for better organization and long-term storage.

Milwaukee’s 4-piece Pry Bar Set fleshes out the line of mechanics tools even further. They feature an I-beam design that provides up to 40% more prying strength. Milwaukee has designed them with an all-metal core and built-in strike caps. Each of the pry bars comes with a comfortable tri-lobe handle. A chrome finish keeps the pry bars free from corrosion.

The Milwaukee Pry Bar 4-Piece Tool Set comes in an easy-access storage tray that offers organized storage for the tools. The pry bars also come with a Lifetime Guarantee.

  • 48-22-9214 – 4-Piece Pry Bar Set – $69

Milwaukee Breaker Bars

The Milwaukee mechanics tools lineup also includes two breaker bars. Both have 1/2″ drive shafts with steel alloy construction. A 180º swivel head lets you work from multiple angles. The handles feature a comfortable design, while a chrome plating keeps these breaker bars durable and free from corrosion.

One of the Milwaukee Breaker Bars measures 15″, while the other adds even more length at 24″. Both carry Milwaukee’s Lifetime Warranty.

  • 48-22-9215 – 4pc Hook and Pick Set – $16.97

Milwaukee Ratchet and Socket Sets

All of the Milwaukee Ratchet and Socket Sets in the mechanics tools lineup share the same design features, so you’ll enjoy the same level of thoughtful workmanship in any of the various drive sizes or configurations.

The ratchets feature a 90-tooth design with a 4º arc swing for max productivity even in tight workspaces. In contrast, a basic ratchet will likely use a 72-tooth pawl that requires a 5º arc swing.

Milwaukee uses the Four Flat design that we’ve come to know and love. Rather than the round sockets you’re likely used to, these have flat sides to keep them from rolling away. This design also lets you use a wrench if you need an assist. Milwaukee engraves the size on the side of the socket so there’s never any ambiguity.

Milwaukee packages the ratchet and socket sets in a variety of configurations. You have options that include metric and SAE measurements, a variety of drive sizes, or packaged in PACKOUT storage boxes or in standalone cases.
